Not necessarily......For example, when I am writing out something, I
frequently go through and block out chords, then go back and do the
duration. And speedy also lets me play or even keep sounding the chord
before and lets me play/mess around with different voicings before
putting them into the score.
And that's the model that works for you.
When transcribing tunes, I generally map the rhythm, and approximate
pitch (up or down), and then go back and fine tune the pitches.
But when arranging I block the chords and then voice them according to
instrumentation.
And I'm sure others have other methods for doing what they do.
The advantage of a flexible program is that we can all use what works
best for us without too many hiccups.
Finale is flexible enough to allow that, and that is why I continue to
use it despite the fact that the company seems to have its head up
its.......yeah
Agreed.
